James Linton Carter (Jim), 53 of Fernandina Beach passed away on March 8, at Baptist Hospital in Jacksonville.
Born at St. Lukes Hospital in Jacksonville on September 25, 1971 to Ms. Carolyn Piazza Carter and the late J. T. Carter of Fernandina Beach.
Jim enjoyed going out to eat, loving on his mother, and just hanging with his father and the guys in the garage. We hope Jim and JT are now riding together again.
He leaves behind his mother, Carolyn Carter; his brothers, Joe Carter(Debbie) and Tommy Carter(Kim); nieces, Amanda, Kayla, Kristin as well as many aunts and uncles of Fernandina Beach.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
